I got roped in immediately--myself becoming as greedy as Gerard, inhaling this gem letter by letter. I loved the premise of this tale. The writing, especially the ending, is phenomenal.

It builds wonderfully from a pretty simple beginning until it's taking in the whole universe with hugely ambitious sweep.

Really wonderful details of how these strange adventures felt and tasted.

Funny you ask about the title as I think more than a thief our protagonist is a consumer, a hungry hungry hippo of cosmic unsatisfied desire.
